Appl. No.:

10/963916

International Classification:

G06F017/27

US Classification:

435069800

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a computation method for detecting remote sequence homologies. The method comprises the following steps: First, a training sequence set of positive and negative examples each having a corresponding binary label is provided together with a database query sequence set (typically large) of unlabeled sequences. Second, each sequence in the training set is converted into a fixed-length vector of real values by computing pairwise sequence similarity scores with respect to the vectorization set to obtain vectorized training sequences each having corresponding binary labels. Third, the vectorized training sequences (along with their binary labels) are used to train a discriminative classification algorithm to obtain a trained discriminative classification algorithm. Fourth, the the database of unlabeled sequences are converted into pairwise score vectors, using the vectorization set to obtain vectorized database sequences. Finally, each vectorized database query sequence is presented to the trained discriminative classification algorithm to produce predicted classifications for the database query sequence.

International Classification:

A47B 87/00

US Classification:

312107

Abstract:

A modular integrated galley in a passenger vehicle, including a mounting rack in the form of a vertical wall including upper, middle and lower storage areas, at least one storage slot extending laterally between the middle and lower storage areas for storing a work surface therein, and a latch for ejecting the work surface at least partially from the slot into a position for being further extended into a fully deployed position by a user. An elongate hinge that extends vertically along a mounted edge of the doors and is adapted for allowing the door to move 180 degrees of travel between its closed and open positions is also disclosed.
